Research purpose. In a way the modern education is faced, the need of new space was required. That way we
take the path (Figure 1) with students, who have been critically thinking of the space which is needed for good
and comfortable room outside the building, which fits the need of school process, entertainment and ambient
(Figure 2) like forest clearing.

Research Methodology. In our project we used critical thinking and observing the world around us especially
the front area of school building as a way to find what kind of intervention is needed there and where to place it,
to fit perfectly in a concept. The very next step was sketching the concept by hand and 3D visualization, which
was the background for further planning in a technical way to draw masterplan and breaking down step by step
procedure.
Results / Findings. Final result was class room as a building in front of the building, which fits the need of
teaching process and also entertainment. Room was used several times in a practically way, but now, lock down,
block to use it a bit more. But it is a great opportunity for further meeting, study process (Figure 3) and having
fun with friends sitting in an ambient.
Originality / Practical implications. Outdoor classroom is students work, which is a unique object, that can be
placed with some modifications to another location, but the main concept stays the same.
